Snipp, Snapp, Snurr and the Reindeer by Maj Lindman (Speaking of vintage Swedish books… The Snipp, Snapp, Snurr and Flicka, Ricka, Dicka books are great for early readers.)

If you are searching for more vintage Swedish goodness, try a few books by Astrid Lindgren (author of Pippi Longstocking): The Tomten, The Tomten and the Fox, and Christmas in Noisy Village.

I saw Van Damme's split on your blog first and it was awesome. I had to laugh when my brother posted this one on Facebook with Chuck Norri's epic split. Just wanted to see if you had seen it yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-D1KVIuvjA

I just found your blog. I love Snipp, Snapp, and Snurr as well as Flicka, Ricka, and Dicka. I also thought diagramming sentences was great fun when I was a student but I never knew others liked to do it as well! :)

Amy~ Bwa-ha-ha-ha!!!!! That is awesome. I showed the boys, and I had to explain to them why it was so funny...which led to searches for Chuck Norris jokes... Thanks for sharing. :D

Kris~ Welcome!! Glad to meet another kindred spirit. :)
